Jumping on a Western Australia Tour is one of the best ways to explore this beautiful side of Australia – as there is a lot of distance to cover, but heaps to see and do!

And this 11 day trip with the crew of Why Not Bus takes in all the highlights from Perth to Exmouth, one of the best stretches of adventure in WA.

After leaving the city life behind in Perth you’ll head north – with incredible stops along the way include The Pinnacles, the beautiful Pink Lake, Kalbarri National Park and the magical coral reefs of Coral Bay, which offers some of the best snorkelling in the whole of Australia!

Their 11 day Western Australia Tour includes heaps of incredible activities, all your transport, accomodation and of course lots of new travel buddies to meet as well.

With the option to add in extra tours en route (we highly recommend a whale shark or manta ray trip in Exmouth) and either return to Perth or finish in Exmouth it’s a great way to see Western Australia without having to worry about piecing it together yourself.

One things for sure – once WA will blow your mind and you’ll be glad you added it into your Australia travel plans!
